Phil Vassar
Phillip George "Phil" Vassar (born May 28, 1964 in Lynchburg, Virginia) is an American country music artist. Vassar made his debut on the country music scene in the late 1990s, co-writing singles for several country artists, including Tim McGraw ("For a Little While", "My Next Thirty Years"), Jo Dee Messina ("Bye, Bye", "I'm Alright"), Collin Raye ("Little Red Rodeo"), and Alan Jackson ("Right on the Money"). In 1999, he was named by American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP) as Country Songwriter of the Year.
Later that same year, Vassar was signed to Arista Nashville as a recording artist. His debut album, Phil Vassar, was released in early 2000; it produced five hit singles on the U.S. Billboard country singles charts and was certified gold in the United States. He followed it in 2002 with American Child, Shaken Not Stirred in 2004, and finally Greatest Hits, Vol. 1 in 2006 before Vassar left the label for Universal South Records. His first album for that label, Prayer of a Common Man, was released in early 2008. He has charted nineteen singles on the Billboard Hot Country Songs charts, including two Number Ones: 2000's "Just Another Day in Paradise" and 2004's "In a Real Love".

Nobody Knows Me Like You
by: Phil VassarIf I said I'd be fine on my own, oh no
It wouldn't be true
I'd be half the man that I am, oh nobody knows me like you
So many troubles in this crazy, crazy world
And sometimes it's just too much
But without a word, out of nowhere you come
To heal me with your touch
I feel your love in all I do, oh nobody knows me like you
Years come and go by
Baby we'll laugh and we'll cry
But we'll take on this life in style
You melt me with your smile
So many worries in this crazy, crazy world
And sometimes it's just too much
Without a word, out of nowhere you come
And heal me with your touch
So turn down the lights, do what you do, oh nobody knows me like you
